He Didn’t Kidnap Me. Not Exactly novel Chapter 60

Chapter 60

He didn’t look like he cared. And of course.

Why would he?

With his reveal, the reaction sharpened instantly. People turned fully now and whispers grew louder and faster, spreading like something alive.

And me?

I was still inside the car, sitting there, preparing for impact. Because I already knew how this would go.

I could practically hear it before it happened. It looked really bad for me. Let me give you an illustration:

Woah. It’s her…

Crack-me girl. Of course she’s chasing the new guy since she failed with Nathan. She really is shameless…

I pressed my lips together as my heart started to race because, of course.

This is how they would twist it. I had already embarrassed myself once so it would naturally work against me in this setting.

I reached for the handle now because I couldn’t hide here forever, and then I took a breath and stepped out, wanting to get this over with.

The height of it would be me walking away while they called me more cruel names and made videos.

I got outside now, closed the door, and then…

Nothing.

Nothing happened…

The attention didn’t hit me. It passed me, like I wasn’t even there.

People moved- literally moved, past me, closing in around DeLuca in a matter of seconds. Voices overlapped, questions flew, phones came out like this was some kind of live event no one wanted to miss. But it washed over me.

Girls were smiling too brightly while guys were trying to act normal and failing. Everyone pulled toward him like gravity had suddenly shifted and he was the center of it.

Okay, I’ve already said that before. But it still stands.
